Popis Development of delivery systems which allow real-time visual inspection of tumors is critical for effective therapy. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorophores have a great potential for such an application. To overcome NIR dyes short blood circulation time and increase tumor accumulation, a NIR dye, cypate, was associated with oleyl hyaluronan, which can self-assemble into polymeric aggregates. The cypate association with oleyl hyaluronan was performed either by a covalent linkage, or physical entrapment. The two systems were compared for tumor targeting and contrast enhancement using BALB/c mice bearing 4T1 breast cancer tumors. Independently on the way of cypate association, it took more than 24 h from intravenous administration to detect NIR signal in tumors and the tumors were clearly visualized for 2 following weeks without substrate reinjection. Covalently linked cypate generated 2-3 fold stronger fluorescence signal than physically loaded cypate. This study demonstrates the potential of HA matrix to be used as carrier of contrast agents for non-invasive long-term tumor visualization.
